"You... you..." Jiang Wanying pointed at Fu Qiuning with a trembling finger, but before she could say anything else, Mrs. Jiang shouted: "That's enough." After saying that, she turned to Jiang Wanying, slapped her with her backhand, and said: " As a mistress of the house, you can listen to wind and rain, and believe those bastard words based on the words of a few servants. After you go back, you will be grounded for a month, reflect on it, and calm down your frivolous temper. "
Jiang Wanying was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood. But she also understood that Mrs. Jiang had to slap her at this time. Only in this way could she shift the responsibility to the unwarranted servant, and only in this way could she avoid Jin Fengju's thunderous wrath and harsher punishment. punishment.
"Yes, my daughter-in-law has realized her mistake." Jiang Wanying stretched out her hand to caress the side of her face that had been beaten. Her silver teeth were almost broken and her tears were flowing down her face. However, even though her body was shaking like a leaf falling in the wind, she had to turn around. He gave Fu Qiuning a deep blessing and gritted his teeth and said: "It was my sister who was reckless today. Just because of a few words, I became suspicious of my sister. I will apologize to my sister here. I hope that my elder sister will have enough money to forgive my young and immature sister. "
Fu Qiuning couldn't help but admire her secretly, thinking that women trained in a house-fighting life were unusual. Look at her ability to bend and stretch freely. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to change my face so quickly for fear of being beaten to death. I was thinking in my heart, but the expression on my face was indifferent, and I just sneered softly: "Young and ignorant? I'm afraid that may not be the case. Although my sister is only three months younger than me, her abilities are really much better than mine. . Now you have got your wish. From now on, Wanfengxuan will be the place where I will die. With such a mark on my arm, I will never have the shame to appear in front of others."
"How could it be so serious? What happened today was because my wife and Wanying were reckless. The fault lies with them. None of them made you feel wronged. Instead, you failed to bear the punishment." The old lady finally spoke and put down her words. Teacup said leisurely: "Besides, not many people know about today's matter. I know that you are generous and kind-hearted, and I won't say anything about it. Qiu Ning doesn't have to be so worried. Otherwise, you are I blame your mother-in-law in my heart, and I think I am also the one to blame."
Fu Qiuning looked at Old Mrs. Jin sadly and thought to herself, ancestor, I finally found such an opportunity, please don't cause any damage to me, okay? For this scene, I gave my body to your grandson. Is it easy for me to wait for such an opportunity? When I thought about this, I had to lower my head and cry: "Although my ancestor said this, my granddaughter-in-law feels that she has lost all face. I ask my ancestors to understand her mood and let her calm down for a while. As long as she is safe for the rest of her life, she will have nothing to do." Please.
Mrs. Jiang was so angry in her heart. Thinking of her son's personality and his recent love for Fu Qiuning, she couldn't help but feel even more irritated, with a faint feeling of guilt and fear. She thought to herself that if the master knew about this, I would have to complain, alas! If I had known this, I shouldn't have trusted this girl Wanying. Didn't she also pat her chest and promise me last time? So what's the result? But I didn't learn this lesson, and now I am in disgrace again. What else can I do if I am not humiliating myself? I'm afraid Wanying will also be sad in the future. It's not worth it, it really isn't worth it. But how did this matter get to this point? Logically speaking, Wanying's eyes are venomous, or was Mrs. Fu deliberately disguising from the beginning to drag us into this trap? If that's the case, isn't this woman's scheming too terrible
She really wronged Fu Qiuning, living in this wealthy family. Fu Qiuning's principle is: you must not have the intention to harm others, and you must not have the intention to defend others. Tolerate the calm and calm for a while, but if the storm is not calm and the sea is not calm, then it is the end of the tolerance and there is no need to endure it anymore. So the reason why she fought back fiercely this time was entirely because Jiang Wanying was too pushy. It's just that Mrs. Jiang doesn't understand her as a person, so it's normal to judge a gentleman with a villain's heart.
Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Wanying could be said to have suffered a big loss this time. They came here arrogantly, thinking that this time they would be able to kick Fu Qiuning out as they wished. But he didn't expect that he would end up defeated and lose his face. Although when they came out, they saw that Xu, Huo, and others were hiding far away, but from the smiles on their faces, it can be known that they knew the whole story.
Linglong followed Mrs. Jiang, too frightened to say a word. She originally wanted to show off her power for her masters, so she turned a blind eye and let everyone come closer to eavesdrop. Unexpectedly, the outcome was beyond everyone's expectations. Unexpectedly, the situation was reversed, and Fu Qiuning was so proud that he got a bargain and turned out to be a good boy. He didn't know how the young marquis could coax her into giving her permission. His master is worried about how to appease his son and prevent the whole family from talking.
*************************
Jin Fengju rushed back from the Buddhist temple with the Queen Mother, and listened to the old man nagging for a long time, saying that he would have time to take Mrs. Jin and his mother into the palace for a walk. He agreed, and someone over there said that the emperor was waiting for him in the imperial study, so he hurried over and saw a few princes and senior ministers who were close and respectful to the emperor. But it was because the land resources in the Central Plains were becoming increasingly scarce, and there were fertile fields thousands of miles away outside the pass. It's a pity that no one is willing to open the petition, not because of fear of hard work, but because of fear of invasion and harassment by Beiyuan Donglu and other countries. So the emperor asked them to come over and discuss moving people outside the pass and sending a large army to guard the border there.
This was a big deal. Everyone came up with ideas and suggestions. After discussing it for most of the day, the plan began to take shape, and it still needed to be carefully considered. The emperor saw that it was already noon, and thought that his ministers and he had been tired all morning, so it was time to take care of a meal. So he ordered everyone to stay and give him a banquet. This was a great favor and honor, and the ministers all readily agreed. Du Jinfengju was thinking about Fu Qiuning at home, and he was really eager to return home, but how could he dare to refuse the banquet given by the emperor.
However, after all, the emperor was still not blinded by old age. When he saw him looking around in the crowd with a worried expression, he smiled and said: "Fengju, what is there to do urgently? If so, you should go back first. This matter needs to be discussed in the long run. , it’s not just a matter of time, we can just discuss it after tomorrow morning.”
As if he had received an amnesty, Jin Fengju hurriedly knelt down to thank him, said goodbye to the other courtiers, and hurried home. Prince Rong was left behind, stretching his neck, wondering what his brother-in-law was doing. I haven't heard anything big happened at my father-in-law's house. Who is this kid doing all this for? Yep, you still owe me a drink.
Finally, we arrived in front of the Duke's Mansion. Before entering, we heard a clanking sound. Jin Fengju looked around, but the sound came from the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion next to it. Jin Ming on the side smiled and said: "The construction of the Hou Mansion has already started, and it is supervised by Uncle Feng. It is expected that the renovation will be completed in three or two months, and the second master and his family can move in. Do you want to go and take a look?"
"Well, another day, how can I have the mind to supervise the work at this time?" Jin Fengju said with a smile, then entered the house, and heard Jin Ming smile and say: "But, even my steps are light and graceful along the way. It can be seen that It’s time to return home, should I go to Kangshouyuan first to pay my respects to my ancestors, or should I go directly to Wanfengxuan?”
"Let me tell you, if I don't go to Kangshou Yuan, wouldn't it be unfilial?" Jin Fengju smiled and pretended to kick Jin Ming, then suddenly frowned and said, "What's wrong? Look at these servants, one What are you looking at us with? Did something happen in the house? "
"It's a little strange." Jin Ming also scratched his head, then pointed at a boy and shouted: "Xiaosan'er, stop, you bastard, stop for me, if you dare to take another step and break your dog legs." He shouted Get up, the mistress who originally wanted to run away had no choice but to do it. The master was standing nearby. If he said he didn't hear it, it would be because he was deaf. Since there's nothing good to gain if you run away, it's better to come back.
"Okay, you little brat, you dare to turn a deaf ear to my words while I'm still here." Jin Ming angrily kicked Xiao San'er and said sternly: "Tell me, why are you running away? What happened in the house? What happened? If you dare to lie even a word, I will skin you first, then break your hands and feet and throw you out of the house."
Of course, this was just a scare, but Xiao San'er also understood in his heart that although it would not expose him, there would be no problem in driving him out of the house. But no matter what, I dare not reveal the good things Mrs. Jiang and others have done from my own mouth. So he just knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and said with snot and tears, "Master, please spare me. I really don't dare to say anything. I will know everything if I go to Wanfengxuan myself."
This sentence made Jin Fengju's face immediately darken, and he said in a serious voice: "I don't ask you anything else, I just ask you, how is the second grandma doing now? Tell me."
"Second Grandma Ning is very good. I don't dare to lie to you. It's really good." After Xiao San'er finished speaking, he kowtowed again and again. Seeing that his face didn't look fake, Jin Fengju nodded and said in a deep voice to Jin Ming: "Let him go. He doesn't dare to bite the bullet on this kind of thing. Come on, let's go to Kangshouyuan."
"Why don't you go to Wanfengxuan first?" Jin Ming asked tentatively, but Jin Fengju shook his head and said, "No, go to Kangshouyuan first. You have to understand the ins and outs of the matter before you can do anything." Go to Kangshouyuan.
Speaking of Fu Qiuning, after seeing off Mrs. Jiang and others, she stood at the door for a long time. Fang let out a long sigh of relief and turned back to the room with a faint smile on her face. There were only three people in the room, namely her and Yu Niang Yujie. Then he smiled and said, "How is it? Is this scene exciting today? My wife and Second Grandma Wan really spared no effort. You should also learn something to be worthy of my performance."
